First time grow harvest questions

Charlie Mendez said:
Hello,
I would like to know if my plants are ready to flush because it seems that they are closed to harvest. I don't have a microscope but my phone has a very good camera and zooming in I can see that the trichomes are all mostly cloudy. (see pictures)

- Im growing in coco 2 Gorilla Glue autoflowers. One in a 3.5 gallon pot and the other in a 2 gallon pot
- Both are 64 days from seed
- I'm using Bio Bizz indoor nutrient pack (bio grow, bio bloom, top max)
- 300w LED

I want to know if they are ready to flush and if not how long should I wait to flush and harvest.

Thank you.

By comparison here is mine at day 63. Maybe yours will fatten up some, but they look pretty nice. You can get a 60x microscope on eBay for cheap.

If you got normal eyesight you will be able to see the patches of amber without any help :-)

Thank you guys, you've been very helpful. I took a better picture of the trichomes with my phone, is a little blurry but I can see a few amber trichomes if you look close enough

Charlie just tell Mulla to shut up or block him from everything you post. You will find more help on here then trolls but every once in a while they find a post they want to shit on. Your plants look good. as far as an auto flower i dont know never grown one. You should wait until you get about 20% amber trichomes with the rest being cloudy. A digital microscope or loupe would help a lot. ususally foilage will start to die off once they get close. Main thing to watch is the pistols on the plant. Once they turn brown and start to curl a bit then i start checking trichomes very closely. Everyone has their own method this is what I do. I would say another couple weeks until they are ready. Give it another week then post some pics.

You have a week or two yet I would guess. Be patient. It’s hard but needed. I still went about a week after this
